Max Note Manager

The script is a built-in note manager directly inside 3ds Max. It is very simple in structure:

On the left there is a list of all notes. Each row is a separate entry with a title. You select a note, and it is immediately loaded into the editor on the right.

On the right there are two fields:

Title — the note title Pad — the main text (supports long multi-line entries) When you edit the text, everything is saved using the buttons at the bottom:

Save / Update — saves a new note or updates the selected one New Note — clears the fields to create a new note Delete — removes the selected note Clear All — completely clears the note database All data is stored in a local file called max_note_manager.txt, so notes are not lost after closing 3ds Max.

Max Note Manager is a lightweight and efficient note-taking tool designed specifically for Autodesk 3ds Max users. It allows you to quickly create, edit, organize, and manage project notes directly inside the 3D software environment, eliminating the need for external text editors.

The script features a clean and intuitive interface with a note list panel, title field, and a large multiline text editor for detailed annotations. Users can easily save, update, or delete notes with a single click, as well as create new entries or clear all stored data when needed.

All notes are automatically saved locally in a UTF-8 encoded file, ensuring full support for multiple languages and special characters. The system is designed to preserve formatting and handle multiline text reliably.

Fast note creation and editing inside 3ds Max

Organized list-based note management

UTF-8 safe storage for international character support

Simple one-click save, delete, and reset actions
